NorCal Cook for the Troops update

landarc · 11-19-2013, 03:54 PM

Okay, I know I did a previous thread on this, and that link it right there. Linky

But, a funny thing happened at the base this morning, Mission Creep! As we were checking out the facility. Word somehow got out that there was going to be real cooking going on, and a whole bunch of the unit that had begged off changed their minds. So, we are now up to 350 people. Interesting...

And so, I committed us to cook for all 350 folks. I only mention this, because if you had thought about donating a little, and I realize many of us, including me, have been donating to OBR, we could use a little pot sweetener here.

What's the best way to donate?

I figured I could dig that info up, but you'll probably get more hot donating action if you put the info up in this here thread as well.

That would give out my email to everyone and their scraper (I am not saying this site isn't safe, just to be clear Poobah). The best way is to PM me, and I will respond with my email for PayPal

Gotcha.

And now, we have the USO stepping in, and they will provide entertainment for the kids and drinks for everyone. This is entirely to the credit of Motoeric.

So, Marty and I have discussed this. We are directing any donations to his Paypal at:

Thanks for everything

Bob / Marty ;
For us out of towers.. may we come in on Fri night and stay till Sunday? I have a camper but don't require any hookups. I am not much of a cook but can provide an example of what not to be!!

If you can connect with Marty or someone, that can probably be worked out. We are not going to be on base overnight, that was going to be an issue. To many agencies involved. The commanding officer told us today, that he was having trouble clearing any overnights.

Chips, you can park in front of my house. I am about 10 minutes away from the site and live at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac. I plan on going to Bart's shop at 5am on Saturday to get packed up and then on to the base. You are welcome to ride along or whatever. Lemme know.

Another option is to stay in Bart's Blazin' Q parking lot right outside his store. That's where it starts Saturday and that is where it ends....

Dude, just show up. It would be great to meet you. Of course, if you came with big bottles of Narwahl I wouldn't be pissed off... :)
